Construction Fails That Will Make You Question The Fate Of Humanity

Constructions projects don't have just "one job." There is a magnitude of tasks that need to be accomplished that gives us the final product. Because there are so many people doing their part, there are some things you just shouldn't mess up.

Unfortunately, no matter how much time and money are invested in some of the projects, all it took was just one construction worker to completely ruin it all.
